Not to worry: the team here at Continental Mazda of Naperville is ready and waiting to provide the helping hand you need.

Power and Efficiency

The 2018 Mazda3 uses the same powertrain as standard across both configurations:

2.0L inline-4 engine capable of up to 155 hp and 150 lb-ft of torque.

Choice of six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission.

However, there’s a small difference in terms of efficiency:

2018 Mazda3 4-Door: Up to 28 mpg in the city and 38 mpg on the highway

2018 Mazda3 5-Door: Up to 27 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway

Interior Features and Space

Both the 2018 Mazda3 4-Door and the 2018 Mazda3 5- Door provide a rich array of top-spec tech as standard, including a 7-inch full-color touch screen display with:

6-Speaker Sound System

Bluetooth Hands-Free Phone and Audio Streaming

MAZDA CONNECT™ Infotainment System

However, the 2018 Mazda3 4-Door reserves a few standard features as its own, including an electrochromic mirror.

But the most fundamental difference between interiors is the added cargo space of the hatchback:

Up to 12.4 cubic feet in the 2018 Mazda3 4-Door Sedan

Up to 20.2 cubic feet in the 2018 Mazda3 5-Door Hatchback

Safety

Peace of mind shouldn’t be a concern in either configuration of the 2018 Mazda3. Both earned a 5-Star Overall Safety Rating after exhaustive NHTSA crash-testing, and each is fitted with plenty of safety features as standard.

That said, the 2018 Mazda3 4-Door makes advanced driver-assistance features available in standard models that aren’t available in entry-level 2018 Mazda3 5-Door models, including:

Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)

Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

2018 Mazda3 Accolades

5-Star Overall Safety Rating from the NHTSA
